CAKE SMASH & BIRTHDAY
Capture your little ones special day with a cake smash or birthday photoshoot.
It's a very exciting time celebrating your Childs first milestones.
Here at Lucy Fay Photography we offer Cake Smash & Splash Photo Sessions its a fun and memorable way for them to get messy whilst capturing a lovely selection of photos to remember their younger memories.
WHAT IS IT
Our full cake smash experience
A cake smash & splash is normally done for a little one who is celebrating their 1st birthday.
Each session includes
* A mini portrait session
* Cake smash
* Splash in the bath.
Your chosen setup, use of props and outfit are included in the photo session.
You need to provide the cake or a food alternative for your photo session.
This can be from a local baker or supermarket the choice is yours.
I'd recommending bringing something that will compliment your chosen setup.
The mini portrait session is a few photos of your child before the cake is introduced you can also include sibling or family photos on a plain white backdrop too.
The cake smash is where we introduce the cake - the messy part!
We let your little one get tucked right in (sometimes they may need a little encouragement so this is where mummy and daddy can help too)
Once I have a good variety of images we will then move onto the splash part in the bath tub.
We then fill the little bath with water and bubbles and let your little one have a good splash whilst I capture the last part of the session. The splash is also a good way for you to give them a good clean down too.
Bath tub images can also be done with no water too
There is a lot of time that goes into these sessions including the planning, setting up and cleaning up too.

FAQ

*You also need to bring a towel and some bubble bath for the splash part of the session.
Unless we have discussed anything extra you want to bring there is nothing else to remember
DO I BRING THE CAKE?
Yes you do, for the best results try and purchase a cake which will compliment your chosen setup.
You don't have to bring a cake there is other food options which work just as well too.
HOW DO I DECIDE ON A SETUP COLOUR OR THEME?
Choose first whether you would like your set based around a colour or whether you would like it themed.
From there if you let me know whether you would like a simple - minimal decoration or a busy setup with lots of props I will know what to create for you and if you have specific props you want me to use also.
You may send across any ideas you have seen for inspiration too.
WHEN SHOULD I BOOK?
If you would like the photo order to be done in time for their birthday so you have it to display for their birthday. I recommend booking 3-4 weeks before their birthday so I can edit your photos and you receive them in time for birthday celebrations .
You can reserve your cake smash photoshoot from when you little one turns 6 months.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE SESSION?
As your package is already paid and includes all your final images -
I will go ahead and get these fully edited for you this can typically be up to a 4 week turnaround but I aim for sooner.
WHAT HAPPENS IF MY CHILD IS ILL?
In the rare occasion your child is ill before your photo session, please let me know in advance of the session and we can reschedule your photo session.
